Are U More Fertile In the First 6 Months After a Pregnancy?
Posted: 09-02-07 00:51am

I had my son in the middle of may 2007, and I bled for about a month afterword and, as I was told, that was normal. Well I got my first actual period on July 29th. I went to visit my husband who lives out of town currently and we slept together on August 5 and august 7th. It is now Sept 1st and I have yet to have another period. I've heard that you are more fertile right after pregnancy because your body is still in "prego" mode. Is that true? Or could my period just be screwy, since i only delivered four months ago?

One thing I remember about being pregnant was how sore my breast were, they're not really sore at all now. And I didnt get morning sickness until exactly a month after my son was concieved, but I have been feeling unusually queezy, and very tired. Like I said b4, No bleeding, but i seem to be producing a lot of creamy white, CM ( i think thats the term used here, sorry im not really up on the lingo)and every time it comes out i rush to the bathroom expecting to find i got my AF, but i havent. I've been very congested and constipated as well. But the sleepyness could be from taking care of a new born (even though he sleeps through the night every night) and the congestion from allergies. I dunno maybe im just psyching myself out or something, it's just weird... I feel the exact same way I did this time last year when I was prego. I just can tell if thats due to seasonal illness or im in the same situation as b4! Ohhhh I took a test ehh maybe a week to a week and a half ago and it was neg ( I cant really remember exactly when i took it.) Last time, for my son, he was concieved on Sept 9th and I took the positive prg test on Oct 9th. Any thoughts are welcomed! PLEASE! Very
Happy

I had my son 4 months ago and I am now 11 days late.. but a friend of mine had her girl a month before I had my son and she was a week late last month and was not pregnant.. Also, after my sister had her second child she only got her period twice in a matter of 9 months.. So there is the chance you are, but it could also be your body.. Those are some of the answers I received on my posts.. The only thing I guess I can really say is to see your doctor, he will know for sure.. I am going Monday to see mine to see if I am pregnant or if it is just my body being weird..
